It is composed of six members: Judge J. Harold Hawkins, president; Dr. Sam L. Ram bo, vice- president; Mr. Guy H. Northcutt, Mr. Max Pittard, Mr. Ewell Hope, and Dr. Ralph Fowler. The Board members are elected by the City Council, and the necessary requirements are that the member must be a citizen of Marietta, Georgia, and a free holder. The length of term of office is six years, with two members being elected every two years. The meetings are usually held on the second Thursday of each month ; however, the president is vested with the authority to call special meetings. The Board handles maintenance of buildings, finances, prescribes courses, and has complete control over faculty. On this page we also wish to pay tribute to Mr. C. A. Keith and Mr. Shuler Antley who guide and direct us on our pleasant journey through school.

FOREWORD In this, the OLYMPIAN of 1942, we have tried to perpetuate in the minds of the students by this book their lives, activities, and accomplish- ments. Out of this school the boys and girls will go into a troubled world, but with them we hope they carry the memories of the four happiest years of their life. The OLYMPIAN staff has tried to bring you more enjoyment from your yearbook by trying many things new. We hope that in the troubled years to come you can look back to your school life and thereby lift some of the heavy burden of life from your back. Deal- Old Marietta High

THE RECREATIOi OTER The Recreation Center plays an important part in the life of every student of Marietta High as well as in the lives of evei-y Mariettan. Most of the school socials are held in its spacious halls. Also such activities as the Senior play, the operettas, boxing matches, and such things for the community welfare as the President ' s Ball. As administrator over this huge project, Mr. Bishop more than fills the job adequately. Ever since its opening he has kept constantly on the job. Serve the people first, might well be his motto. He keeps all the equipment re- paired, and replaces all faulty equipment that might impair the efficiency of the gym. The students of M. H. S. have their physical ed classes in the center often. They have their tea dances there. They come there when they feel the need of any physical recreation. Truly, the Brumby Recreation Center is one of the most important things that ever hap- pened to the people of Marietta. Students in front of the gym at recess. Mr. Al Bishop, our gym director
